I was thinking that difficult terrain would be an interesting feature in a game. Perhaps the Kinect could be used to read the landscape as the robot is driven, and adjust automatically.

Thank you Tristan Lall for the original link, but a little on how the kinect works:

The laser is actually really help full in creating a sense of depth. Their are two video streams a RGB and a depth version. They designed it so you can cut out your buddy walking behind the couch. For us, it would be able to limit the depth it is interested to what is right in front(it also raises the bar from the axis to 60 fps so it is less jumpy)
